It has had sound in the past--I made a movie in iMovie, shared to iTunes, movie has volume in iTunes, shared to Apple TV, plays in My Movies (shared), no volume in any of Apple TV playlists--ie. iTunes, TV, other movies, etc. Have checked all TV audio--ie speakers, mute buttons, etc., as well as Apple TV settings in Audio section, TV plays volume on other channels.

If Apple TV is connected to a receiver, make sure the receiver is turned on.

Make sure the input setting you've selected on your receiver matches the input you have your audio cables connected to. See the documentation that came with your receiver for more information.

Make sure the volume on your TV or receiver is turned up and isn't muted.

Check whether you can hear sound while playing video only. Also, check whether you can hear audio feedback while clicking through menu options.

If you're connected to the HDMI port on your TV and Apple TV, make sure your TV supports audio through its HDMI port. The HDMI ports on some older TVs support only video.

If you are using HDMI audio, try disconnecting and reconnecting the HDMI cable.

If you're connected to the HDMI port on your TV and Apple TV, make sure your TV is setup to receive audio from HDMI. For some TV's this is automatic, but for others there is a choice between digital and analog (for HDMI audio, choose digital). Read more about HDMI audio.

I will tell you that...the things you have to go through to be an Expert are quite rigorous.

What Customers are Saying:

Hi John, Thank you for your expertise and, more important, for your kindness because they make me, almost, look forward to my next computer problem. After the next problem comes, I'll be delighted to correspond again with you. I'm told that I excel at programing. But system administration has never been one of my talents. So it's great to have an expert to rely on when the computer decides to stump me. God bless, BillBill M.Schenectady, New York
